Be that as it may, this Ascanius, wherever born and of whatever mother it is at any rate agreed that his father was Æneas seeing that Lavinium was over-populated, left that city, now a flourishing and wealthy one, considering those times, to his mother or stepmother, and built himself a new one at the foot of the Alban mount, which, from its situation, being built all along the ridge of a hill, was called Alba Longa.
The new knowledge sweeps away the venerable checks of pestilence and disease, and confronts us with the congestions and explosive dangers of an over-populated world. The old tradition demands a special prolific class doomed to labor and subservience; the new points to mechanism and to scientific organization as a means of escape from this immemorial subjugation.
An over-populated diocese misery and starvation on all sides, men working for mere pittances, women prostituting themselves to obtain food children starving girls ruined in their teens and over it all, my wretched self, a leading representative of the Church which can do nothing to remedy these evils!
FALSTAFF "Four rogues in buckram let drive at me." King Henry IV., Act II. Scene 4. By the time Salam had roused me from a dream in which I was being torn limb from limb in a Roman amphitheatre, whose terraced seats held countless Moors all hugely enjoying my dismemberment, I realised that a night in that guest-house would be impossible.

If Britain is not really at present over-populated, the same is probably even more true of Germany. For Germany, with a larger and more fertile area in proportion to her population, is safer than we are in the matter of self-support.
Some over-populated planet in our system discovered a way to relieve itself by discharging its superfluous millions on our globe a pale people with hurrying feet and eager, restless minds, who live apart in monstrous, crowded camps, like wood ants that go not out to forage for themselves six millions of them crowded together in one camp alone!
Without them, child-murder would be as common in Christendom as it is in over-populated China. To interest a number of people in your welfare, get in debt to them. If they will not then promote your interest, it is because they are not alive to their own. It is to the advantage of creditors to aid their debtors.
A male in a congested district, having no incentive to seek fresh ground, would remain inactive until a female happened to cross its path and stimulate its sexual impulse, when its activity would take another form. Hence some districts would be over-populated, whilst others would remain unexplored.
